Bill, I saw a nice implementation of this concept at IDEO's website a
few days ago. Their purpose was to create a custom PDF about the
company based on the person's interests, but it's the same sort of
experience and worked well on a few different levels.

Visually, you can see the full range of available components in the
middle. Along the left, there are a few simple questions that
auto-select a range of choices based on selections. And, clicking on
any of the images in the middle gives you a preview of that
particular selection over on the right where you also have a checkbox
to manually add / delete that content from the final PDF.
I liked that it worked across a wide range of engagement -- the left
menu choices lets you make broad brush strokes of interest but you
also had individual granular control over any of the elements on the
right.
